Poor Man's Lottery today.....

I feel like I won the lottery today. I won an old Stevens Tip Up #2 online. It was advertised as "rebored to 32". It started life as a 22 short or long rifle. I could see that it was converted to CF at some point back in time. I decided to take a chance on it and after unwrapping it this morning, the next order of business was a chamber cast. Fully expecting a 32 S&W, I was very pleasantly suprised to find a perfect 32WCF(32-20) chamber! Bore and chamber both are almost perfect. This will be a fun one to shoot and a "big bore" compared to my 25's  Roll Eyes

I have one in 32-20, lots of fun to shoot and a good design ergo metrically.
Looks like yours is in fine shape, congrats!
